Women’s Residential Services (WRS)

What is WRS?

WRS is a Dual Diagnosis Capable (DDC) residential treatment program for chemically dependent women and their children. Priority is given to pregnant and parenting women and intravenous drug using women. Individualized treatment focuses on two main areas: developing a chemical-free lifestyle through building recovery and resiliency skills and improving parenting skills. WRS can accept up to four children between the ages of 6 and 11 during the school year.

Because empowerment is key to our philosophy, residents make decisions about their treatment plan, as well as decisions about day-to-day living at the program. In doing so, they strengthen decision-making skills they will need to succeed in living a healthy lifestyle.
